All of them were idiots but unfortunately we can only deport immigrants.

So only one unfortunate #RWNJ pays the price for the others.

I hadn't heard about the resistance. Do you have a link with more information?

Pic shows a coal fired power station taken from above. Caption: Industry leaders have said they need ‘a lot more detail’ on the Coalition’s abandonment of net zero, with some noting that there is no investor appetite for new coal-fired power stations.

What a mess.

The Libs have a plan not to have a plan and the Labs have a plan to appear to have a plan.

Meanwhile the rest of us are wondering what we're going to breathe tomorrow.

Japan moves to cool tensions with China amid diplomatic spat over Taiwan Tokyo has sent a senior foreign ministry official to Beijing to try and ease tensions, that have seen threats made against Japan's prime minister.

I don't think Taichi PM has much to fear from offending #China.

The Chinese are so sensitive about any official who hints at the publicly obvious status of #Taiwan that they've taken offence to every nation & leader now.

'Easier to access poker machines' than support in Indigenous communities New figures show there are 50 per cent more pokies in areas with an Indigenous population of at least 10 per cent. Gambling groups say it is "not surprising".

If you want to find vulnerable people then watching slot machine companies is probably a good strategy.

They have an uncanny ability to find desperate people who can't afford to lose money.

“Now is the right time to support net zero emissions by 2050 because the Government’s plan is right for the regions. It doesn’t tax Australians and our industries, instead it provides opportunity for decades to come.“.
Bridget McKenzie, 2021

Liberals aren't alone as net zero sceptics — but the data doesn't lie The strange macho appeal of fossilised vegetation means that 30 years of annual United Nations meetings to stop the planet heating any more have been a bust.

The Liberal Party made made the wrong call on net zero.

The only path to electoral victory was to split from the Nationals on #climate but agree to stick together on other issues & preserve the coalition.

(If the Nationals would accept that.)

Hush your mouth Chrispy!
World renowned climate expert President Donald J. Trump has assured us that global warming is a hoax. 😉

That's a fact, Matt.

It wasn't just Virginia #Giuffre. #Epstein was in a position where desperation could have caused him to trade his freedom for dozens of other powerful men.

There are even rumours that #Trump was implicated.

When someone who is inconvenient to the rich & powerful dies an unnatural death, there are bound to be doubts.

2012 Queensland state election - Wikipedia

Queenslanders thought the ALP was done for several elections in 2012 won in a landslide but he only lasted one term.

The international legal system is only what individual countries accept.

The #ICJ routinely has its rulings ignored. What matters is whether major powers (& in recent years mid-level powers) accept.

#auspol

Both the LNP & ALP have planned the future of the Australian economy around bloated #coal profits & taxes.

Neither of them wants to bring it to end quickly.

#Auspol

The poll I posted suggested the #LNP are preferred by 47% of Australians.

That's not very far from government so even many who hate them should be aware of their plans.

#Auspol

Try telling Trump that.

The Geneva convention covers war but doesn't prevent swiftly killing with weapons.

Due process is a domestic legal concept.

It's not mentioned in wartime (or the war on drugs) & Trump accuses those on the boats of smuggling.

Not many on #BlueSky support the LNP but many are interested in it. A lot of Australians elsewhere support the Liberals too.

❗️In the Pokrovsk direction, yesterday 192 Russian servicemen were neutralized, along with 4 tanks and 8 armored vehicles, — General Staff of Ukraine.

From November 10 to 15, the enemy's irrecoverable losses in personnel amounted to 524 individuals, with another 260 wounded.

As evil as #Trump is, I still believe in the presumption of innocence. Only the president & the victims know what's true & they should all have their day in court.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Australians have known about #climate change since the mid 1980s but haven't voted for or done much either.

I know it doesn't seem like it on BlueSky but most Australians have views that lie near the left of the LNP or the right of the ALP.

The 'bogan' Australian giving War & Peace an irreverent remake Ander Louis has written a new version of Leo Tolstoy's classic Russian novel in Australian slang.

Except as a joke, I haven't heard people talk about sheilas & drongos since I was a young kid.

It seems that this new version of War & Peace is just as much a parody of Australian English as it is an amusing version of Tolstoy's work.
